Radionuclides are radioactive isotopes of elements that can be naturally occurring or human-made. They can be found in food and the environment as a result of natural processes, such as the decay of uranium and thorium in rocks and soil, or as a result of human activities, such as nuclear power generation and nuclear weapons testing.
